Bad backs and knees for sitting on the floor?


Recommended Posts

Does Japanese have more of a problem with back backs, knees etc through sitting on the floor?

I think it would really do mine in if I did it all the time, curious to know if many people have problems...

Well you see the old ladies walking around in an agonising-looking crunched up position, but that's due to rice planting isn't it?

Modern folk don't seem to have a problem.

 

I still prefer a comfy chair myself, never really get used to the floor thing.
